  • 350°F

Preheat your oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a baking dish with cooking spray or 4 tbsp unsalted butter.

Uses

  • Oven
  • Baking Dish
  • Cooking Spray
  • Unsalted Butter

Using a long serrated knife, slice the entire slab of rolls in half horizontally, keeping them connected as one piece. Place the bottom slab cut-side up in the prepared baking dish.

Uses

  • Knife
  • Baking Dish
  • Hawaiian Roll

Spread the ½ cup Thousand Island dressing evenly over the cut side of the bottom slab of Hawaiian sweet rolls.

Uses

  • Thousand Island Dressing
  • Hawaiian Roll

Layer half of the Swiss cheese slices evenly over the dressing. Then pile on all of the deli corned beef in an even layer.

Uses

  • Swiss Cheese
  • Thousand Island Dressing
  • Deli Corned Beef

Spread the drained sauerkraut evenly over the 1 lb deli corned beef. Make sure it is as dry as possible — excess moisture will make the rolls soggy. Top with the remaining Swiss cheese slices.

Uses

  • Sauerkraut
  • Deli Corned Beef
  • Hawaiian Roll
  • Swiss Cheese

Place the top slab of Hawaiian sweet rolls over the fillings and press down gently.

Uses

  • Hawaiian Roll
  • Medium-low

Make the 4 tbsp unsalted butter glaze: melt the 4 tbsp unsalted butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Whisk in the 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce, 1 tsp Dijon mustard, 1 tsp brown sugar, ½ tsp garlic powder, and 1 tsp caraway seeds (if using) until combined. Remove from heat and stir in the 1 tbsp fresh parsley finely chopped if using.

Uses

  • Saucepan
  • Unsalted Butter
  • Worcestershire Sauce
  • Dijon Mustard
  • Brown Sugar
  • Garlic Powder
  • Caraway Seed

Brush the 4 tbsp unsalted butter glaze generously over the tops and sides of the rolls, using all of it.

Uses

  • Unsalted Butter
  • Hawaiian Roll
  • 15 min

Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake for 15 minutes. This steams the sliders and melts the cheese through.

Uses

  • Baking Dish
  • Aluminum Foil
  • Swiss Cheese
  • 5 min

Remove the aluminum foil and bake for an additional 5 minutes, until the tops are golden brown and slightly crisp.

Uses

  • Aluminum Foil
  • Brown Sugar
  • 2–3 min

Remove from the oven and let rest for 2–3 minutes. Use a sharp knife to cut along the roll seams into individual sliders. Serve immediately.
